Personally, I'd take Wagner all day long and Mantle on Sunday. To me, the card (Wagner) trumps the nicest version of a card (Mantle 10). Trout is somewhere down the road.

Disagree. Kendrick has been offered and turned down 10 million for his Wagner. That is just as good as Trout selling at auction. There is nothing saying that if Ken decided to sell, that it wouldn't go for more. I agree that any of the PSA 10 Mantles would sell for more as well as the best BN Ruth. Even that PSA 5MC Wagner is worth more than the Trout. You point to a sale from 4 years ago while the Trout sold for 400k 2 years ago. The jumbo Wagner is gone up a lot in 4 years considering the PSA 2 that sold last year for almost double what it sold for a few years earlier. All premium cards have gone way up recently, not just this Trout.
